It has been a while since I've seen a thread like this - the rules are simple: attempt to identify the location of the last posted picture in the thread. Once the picture poster confirms the first correct responder that person then gets to add a (sailing-related) picture to the thread and the game continues.
Since I'm no good at this type of guesswork my only chance of getting a picture into the thread is by starting it off with the following picture:
It does look like St Lucia, but its not Rodney Bay. I think it's the one just north of those two peaks... My big computer is out of batteries so I can't check the chart for the name.... The mountains were the Pitons? So Pitons Bay?
I don't think I am right, because the mountains are much taller than that, if my dementia helps me.... And the town was Soufriere, which could be there but cut by the framing of the photo.... But I don't think these mullock hills are the Pitons.
I did time in Prickley Bay, but St George's is definitely the pick. I was at anchor there for about a month. Having the Caranage as the dinghy dock is one of the pleasures of cruising.
PCP has it, allowing for a typo. It's Waterlemon Bay in the foreground within the larger context of Leinster Bay. The sandy area is attached to Waterlemon Cay, a great snorkeling spot. Off to the left you can barely make out the gray structures that are part of the ruins of the Annaberg sugar plantation, which is worth a visit.
This area is within the US Virgin Island park system and includes hiking trails connecting to the rest of St. John. There is a lot of history on this island, including the slave rebellion in the 18th century.
Yes. Med. That's a very good anchorage with a lot of wind and sea protection from all sides except one. Both pictures were taken from my boat, the first one to the bow this one to the opposite side.
